Letter of the Week

Citius, Altior, fortius

Who is the greatest/most courageous racehorse in the world? 
My nomination would be the nine-year-old English steeplechaser Altior, who was beautifully acknowledged by John Wathen-Berry in last week’s WinningPost. 
Winx, Enable and Almond Eye are champions, but nothing compares to watching Altior scale those huge fences in England. 
When he wins again for the fourth straight year at Cheltenham this year it will be a feat at least the equal of four Cox Plates.
